addiClassic 40 cm circular knitting needle – for hats, sleeves and polo necks

The addiClassic 40 cm circular knitting needle is a short circular needle with white-bronzed brass tips and a gold plastic cable, made for knitting in the round on a small circumference. According to addi, the 40 cm length suits sleeves, children's clothes, polo necks and hats. addi has since renamed the series "addiPremium Classic".

The stitches sit on the cable and, according to addi, slide smoothly over the tips even with rough yarns. addi describes the needle as suitable for fast knitters and beginners, especially with loosely twisted and multi-strand yarns. The tips are short and the needle is handmade in Germany. Choose the needle size from the options.

What the 40 cm length is for

At 40 cm, you can knit pieces with a small circumference in the round. According to addi, these include sleeves, children's clothes, polo necks and hats. For a hat, you work the edge straight in the round, without double-pointed needles. According to addi, the longer cable lengths of 60 to 150 cm are intended for scarves, jumpers or cardigans.

Tips and cable in everyday use

Because the stitches rest on the cable rather than on the needle, the knitting does not hang from the tips. Needle size and length are printed on the cable, so you can easily find the right needle again when you have several projects on the go. The tips are firmly joined to the cable and do not swivel. The needle is suitable for knitting in the round and for flat work.
